※ [本文轉錄自 NBA 看板 #1IMfRnl0 ] 作者: RonArtest93 (新阿泰) 看板: NBA 標題: [外絮] Garcia與Casspi的友情時間: Sun Oct 13 20:49:50 2013 2009年舊文新貼 http://www.sacbee.com/kings/story/2284066.html Comfort wasn't easy to come by for Omri Casspi. 對Casspi來說這不是輕鬆的事 He hadn't experienced it in July summer league in Las Vegas, where the Kings' rookie small forward from Israel looked like a man in a foreign land even on the basketball court. The real culture shock came later, when Casspi began switching sides on the globe and preparing for his Sacramento stay. 他面臨到文化衝擊不論場上還是場外 But after a morning practice in late September, the most unexpected of Kings ambassadors helped Casspi feel comfortable: fifth-year small forward Francisco García. 但九月底一個出乎意料的人出現了那個人是Garcia "He told me to come in late at night at 9 o'clock to be in the gym," Casspi said. "I came in late at night, and it was only me and him in the gym. My father came with me. 'Cisco told me, 'Hey Omri, you're my rookie this year. I'm going to take care of everything you need. If you've got any questions, if you have any problems … ' 「他邀我晚上9點一起到健身房那時只有我們兩個跟我爸 Garcia告訴我『Casspi , 你就像第一年的我, 我會好好幫助你你有任何困難就來找我...』」 "It meant a lot to me. I'm coming from a different country, coming to a new culture, and to see a guy like him. … He said, 'People might think we're competing for the same (position), but … I'm going to really keep supporting you. He did that day. He still is." Casspi說: 「這對我意義非凡我從陌生的地方來美國打拼然後碰到CISCO這樣的好人 Garcia對我說『人們總說我們兩個是競爭者但是別管那些我真的會幫你』他真的作了而且持續在幫我...」 With the official start of Casspi's NBA career just one day away, he's never looked so comfortable. Casspi NBA生涯剛開始狀態並不是很好 The once out-of-sorts 21-year-old who sparked skepticism at summer league has prompted endless praise after the exhibition season. Kings coach Paul Westphal called him the surprise of the team to this point. And in light of García's wrist injury that required surgery and will keep him out at least until mid-February, Casspi's breakout has come at a crucial time. 他從夏季聯盟的對大家還有很多疑問的小夥子變成熱身賽後大家驚呼連連的新人教練 Paul Westphal說他是球隊目前的最大驚奇鑒於Garcia受傷要二月中才會回來 Casspi的補上扮演著球隊重要的角色 After Monday's practice, the 27-year-old García, whose right arm is in an above-the-elbow cast, rebounded for Tyreke Evans with his left arm while discussing the difficulty of his situation. He finds himself depressed sometimes, frustrated that after an offseason's worth of work he faces such a rigorous road to recovery. It's six more weeks until the cast comes off; who knows how long from there before his wrist and game are fully mended. 禮拜一練習時 Garcia 右手纏著繃帶用他的左手幫Tyreke Evans撿籃板他談到傷勢時感到沮喪他在暑假辛苦的苦練換來的只是六週甚至更久的復健期沒人能保證何時他才能完全復原回來打球 (Garcia加油!! 加油!!!!) Suddenly, the mentoring is his only connection, his only way to contribute. It's also why he has decided to go on all the team's trips. 現在他唯一能對球隊作的貢獻就是指導年輕球員 "I'm so happy for (Casspi) because he's playing so good right now," García said. "His confidence is up. He was handling the ball today, and I said, 'Keep working. The more you lose the ball, the better you're going to get at it. Just keep working. Don't worry about it.' 「我很高興看到Casspi現在打的很好他的信心正在上升他今天運球時我告訴他『別擔心掉球大不了就是一次失誤而已每一次掉球就代表你越來越接近會運球了保持努力別想太多』」 "You see his shot is so much better now because he's been working. You can see the work. You can see the difference when people work. That's what I'm telling Tyreke now, 'If you shoot every day, you're going to see the difference.' That's what you see with Omri. He can't miss. In practice today, he didn't miss. He's in a zone right now. I hope he carries it into the season." 「你看到他現在越變越好了我也告訴Evans同樣的事如果你投射不好你每天都練遲早會變好的 Casspi現在在練習時幾乎沒有Miss掉任何一球他找到投籃的感覺了我希望他能在比賽時繼續保持』 García knew the challenges of changing cultures well, having moved from his native Dominican Republic to New York when he was 13. Garcia在13歲時就從多明尼加搬到紐約他知道在異地生活有多困難 "I know it's hard," he said. "The culture is different; his family isn't going to be here. I know his brother (Eitan) is here (and is living with Casspi), but he's going to need somebody on the team to be with him and show him the ropes. 「我知道文化隔閡很困難雖然我知道Casspi他哥有搬來跟他一起住但是在球隊還是要有一個關心他的人比較好」 "I'm going to be that person. I'm just happy for him; he's doing so good because he worked hard." 「我願意當他的大哥他目前作的都很好因為他很認真工作」 The work has produced results so far, as Casspi's defensive versatility, offensive efficiency and fearlessness on both ends have convinced Westphal to give him a role in his rotation. Casspi的工作成果最近展現了出來他可以防守多個位置進攻變的有效率而且帶著無畏的心態上場打球他贏得了教練的信任 "He's shown some real good ability to belong out there," Westphal said. "He's somebody that doesn't recognize limitations, and he's willing to pay the price to achieve his goals." 教練說「他有著很好的能力他還有著未開發的天賦而且最重要是他肯努力付出去完成他的目標」 He's somebody who's getting more comfortable every day, too. 他正在一天比一天茁壯 Omri & Cisco 兩個國王未來會依賴到的關鍵射手他們的友誼從現在開始萌芽........ =================================================================== 這是2009年Casspi新人年我發的文章此後。Casspi比Garcia更早離開國王隊。但到騎士隊也不太得志。有一度我認為他應該即將結束他的NBA生涯回歐洲打球。 Garcia呢?也不太好過。在國王隊亂無章法的運用下始終埋沒命中率的低落更被人質疑是否09年的手傷之後Garcia的投射功夫已回不去了。那他也只有退休一途。所幸面臨國王隊換老闆前最後一次大交易。Garcia終於被換到一隻競爭力較好的球隊火箭，並且在季後賽展現了他的價值又快找回以往打球的熱情爾後2013年暑假，Garcia宣佈與火箭簽下一紙 2y/2.6M的短約隨即火箭宣佈與Casspi也簽下兩年約。合理推測Garcia這位大哥居中有很大牽線的成份。一晃五年。因緣變遷，輾轉聚首。一對原本面臨NBA邊緣化危機的兄弟。他們並沒有在絕境中放棄生存的希望。並且當自己得到機會的時候，還不吝嗇去提攜同位置的彼此。這是少見的場上真情。想要多了解Casspi與Garcia兩個人可以到國王板搜索標題 "以色列來的男孩" 系列文章及 "El Flaco - Francisco Garcia" 由santabrelai翻譯的好文。有詳細兩人成長背景的介紹也希望新球季麥克海爾能多使用這兩位患難兄弟用他們的三分球證明這世界上最堅固的不是命運，而是友情。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 36.231.157.34
